## Petrol put in diesel tank: what to do
The most common misfuel, and the one with the most to lose by starting the engine.

## Before and after the key turns
Before: contamination confined to the tank, a single straightforward extraction. After: the lift pump has pulled it through, the filter has absorbed some, the high-pressure pump is running on the wrong lubricant and the injectors are next. Same mistake, two very different jobs, separated by one turn of a key.

## Step by step
Do not start it — that is the whole thing Everything else on this list is detail. This one line is the difference between a call-out and a pump.
- Leave the vehicle where it stopped Pushing or coasting is still movement, and movement is how contaminated fuel finds the pickup.
- Sort out safety Hazards, and get people out of the vehicle if you are anywhere near moving traffic.
- Call 01293 248666 Answered around the clock. Tell us what went in and whether it ran; you get the full price before a technician sets off.
- The job itself Extract, flush, refill, prime, run up, check. Roughly an hour on a standard vehicle.
- Old fuel away, invoice done Controlled waste, transfer note, registered carrier. Keep the note — it is what protects you.

## The pattern across 2,190 reviews
An average of 4.8 on Trustpilot. Positive reviews describe relief — someone arrived sooner than expected and treated an embarrassing error as routine, because for us it is.

Negative reviews describe sticker shock. So the sticker is here: £89 to £199 call-out, £199 to £1,999 drain, and you hear your own figure on the phone, with time to decide, before anyone drives out.

## Questions we get asked

**What if I have already driven it?**
Still call. Most vehicles driven a short distance are recoverable. Tell us how far you got, because it changes the kit we bring.

**Can I just top it up with the right fuel?**
No. Dilution does not fix contamination, and driving to a filling station to try it is the mile that turns a drain into a repair.

**What happens to the old fuel?**
It leaves with us as controlled waste under a waste transfer note. It is not tipped, and it is not resold to you.

**Is this a garage?**
No. Wrong Fuel Maryport is mobile. A technician travels to the vehicle wherever it is standing.
